Tender: Provision of Integrated Healthy Lifestyles Service – North Northamptonshire

About

North Northamptonshire Council is seeking a lead service provider to deliver a comprehensive Integrated Healthy Lifestyles Service (IHLS) across North Northamptonshire to help residents make sustainable changes to key modifiable risk factors and reduce inequalities. The service will focus on physical activity, diet and excess weight, strength and balance for falls prevention and earlier identification of increased risk of long-term conditions, and will introduce a central triage function and an expanded range of interventions to support behaviour change. Interventions are organised into three pillars: a universal self-help pillar (health promotion campaigns and digital self-help tools), a behaviour change pillar (health coaching) and a structured treatment pillar (community falls prevention, enhanced behaviour change support and a targeted NHS Health Checks programme in workplaces and specific communities). Elements of subcontracting are permitted. The procurement will be conducted under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 via a Competitive Process; the Procurement Act 2023 does not apply to this award.
